Glad you figured it out. Should also help the next person to forget the config file. As for that error I would try commenting out that line and restarting telegraf. Ya, glad I'm at least getting this far. Now to figure out the errors.. I commented out the line already and keep getting other errors. Error parsing /etc/telegraf/telegraf.conf, line 492: field corresponding to `collect_cpu_time' is not defined in `*system.CPUStats' edit: just got it running. had to comment out the #logfile line and & #collect_cpu_time line. We will see if it collects correctly.

Have you tried nuking your docker image? Turn off docker in settings and go to your appdata folder and delete the docker image? That's about all the help I can think to offer at this point. Well I'm getting closer. Issue was the .conf file location. The required location was noted as /mnt/user/appdata/telegraf/telegraf.conf. It was creating this path automatically, but telegraf.conf was an actual directory. So I removed the directory and placed the file at /mnt/user/appdata/telegraf/. Hope this makes sense, but that is at least got things moving. The issue I have now is the docker log is giving me this error: Error parsing /etc/telegraf/telegraf.conf, line 70: field corresponding to `logfile' is not defined in `*config.AgentConfig' I believe it has something to do with this line...Not sure what to do to fix the error. ## Specify the log file name. The empty string means to log to stderr. logfile = ""

Well that worked too. Container is running. Nothing is being sent to influxdb though. edit: nevermind...I was looking in the wrong spot. Still doesn't get me all info I was wanting, but at least it's working. Now to figure out why the other container doesn't work.

That one worked too.

I don't have any others. Just tried apache with no luck. Any suggested app's to try? Try watchtower, its a simple app that updates your other docker images to the latest versions. That worked. It's running.

Did exactly as you said...still won't start. Here is a screenshot of me trying to add the container

I've got another thread specific to my issue, but was suggested to post here. https://lime-technology.com/forum/index.php?topic=55847.0 Issue: Docker will not start. the .conf file is in the appropriate location. Not sure what the below logs are telling me. I've deleted and tried to add again with same issue.

I'll assume you mean the logs?

I'll apologize up front for the noob questions...but where can I get that info?

[ftp][/ftp]I got telegraf 1.0 from the community apps and believe to have it set up correctly. It looks like I have everything set up right? . I did add the telegraf.conf file to /mnt/user/appdata/telegraf/telegraf.conf/ but no matter how many times I try to click the icon and start it, it refreshes the page and stays off. Can't seem to find any log info either. Anyone have similar issues? Any pointers?

Any plans on getting an iPad friendly app or updating this one to support iPads?

Thanks for the replies. I know it'll be loud, but my rack is in the basement and won't disturb anyone. Long term plan would probably be to rebuild a new machine in this case as time/money permits. Just figured this could work for my needs now until then.

I currently have a 4 drive QNAP but need to upgrade to something that has more capacity potential. Contemplated building a system but stumbled on this and can't figure out why I wouldn't get it...if for nothing other than the case. Am I missing something? If I was to get this, would I be able to run it out of the box as a simple mass storage server? I don't run plex and don't intend to. I just use the box to store files, music, etc. Worst case, I could keep the case and replace the guts...Still ahead compared to the cost of a new Norco 24bay case. Again, maybe I'm missing something and I'm just not seeing it.

Any pictures? Also, do you know how much power it pulls?

First off, I'm new here, so hello. I've been lurking for a while and have read what seems like 1000's of pages. Great community here with lots of knowledge! To cut to the chase, I'm out of space on my QNAP NAS. It's a TS-412 and has worked great for my needs. Basically network storage and the occasional streaming of video to one of my 2 AppleTV's in the house. I MAY do some computer backups in the future, but for now I have dedicated drives for that. I also run a web server, SQL server & VPN server from the QNAP. Mainly just to play around with and test things. 99% of the use is storage. I will most likely use my dedicated Poweredge server for virtualization and the other stuff. Plus I'd like to use it as my own private dropbox like service. Bottom line, I want a low power system (will stay on nearly 24/7) that will store all my media and stream the occasional movie/tv show to the AppleTV's. I'm not going to populate all 24 drives at once, but I drives and drives of stuff that I'd like to get in one location. OS at time of building: unRAID 6 Pro CPU: Intel Core i3-4130T Haswell Dual-Core 2.9 GHz Motherboard: Supermicro MBD-X10SLL-F-O uATX RAM: Kingston 8GB DDR3 ECC Unbuffered SDRAM Case: SuperMicro SC846E1-R900B (or similar from ebay) OR Norco 4224 Power Supply: SuperMicro will come with (2) 900w. Not sure yet on a PSU if I go with the Norco case. SATA Expansion Card(s): SYBA SI-PEX40071 8 Internal SATA Port Card OR Supermicro AOC-SASLP-MV8 Add Ons Planned: preclear, unMenu, cache_dirs Main questions are: Is the CPU/Mobo combo sufficient for my needs? What SATA card should I go with?
